Yerington Boom Promises Growth and New Camp Wealth
Yerington sits at the center of Nevada’s current boom with camps near Rawhide and promising discoveries nearby. The town expects boosted trade from Mountain View to Pine Grove, expanded mining activity, and more jobs for blacksmiths and merchants as provisions and mining material move in. The local schools face crowding, necessitating urgent action, while the city council introduces garbage cans to curb disease and reduce doctor bills, urging citizen cooperation.
